Upsets to kick off day 2 of Meridian Canadian Open
The Meridian Canadian Open’s second draw began at 8 a.m. on Wednesday morning with a couple of big surprises.
Both Rachel Homan and Jennifer Jones were ousted in their first game, Homan falling 5-4 to Jacqueline Harrison from Mississauga, Ont., and Jones losing 5-4 to Brianne Meilleur from Winnipeg in an extra end.
Harrison said her team stuck to their game plan against Homan, other than a nerve racking seventh end where she led 4-3 and it looked like Homan was going to steal multiple points to take the lead.
“Overall I think we played our game,” Harrison said. “A little hiccup in the seventh end but luckily we were able to come out with that only giving up a steal of one. So overall I’m happy with the team’s performance.”
